| Extra Information
|
A Christamas motet in the exuberant style of the late 16th century (e.g. Gabrieli). For the middle part before the refrain is repeated, I have prepared two alterntive versions. One is the original Latin verse from the Graduale Romanum, the other one is an English translation of the preceding Latin text. The latter version might be useful as a self-explanatory "subtitle".
